• Vegetarian Options at a Korean Restaurant

I love Korean food but struggle to find vegetarian food with substance at most Korean restaurants. Rice Bar's Subway-style approach to bibimbap makes it easy to put together a filling Korean-style vegetarian meal. This isn't a fancy place, it's better for a quick lunch when already in the neighborhood. I like the food a lot but have read on other sites that people think the food is too salty and/or not authentic. As to being too salty, I guess I just think Korean food tends to be salty. As to not being authentic enough, I lived in Asia for years and think it's pretty authentic, but I obviously can't speak to the authenticity of the meat! I wouldn't mind if it was a dollar or so cheaper for lunch here, those toppings can really add up! The last time I visited, my bibimbap and soda were $11.50 total and I had tried to restrain myself when ordering. Still, I was happy I stopped by for lunch.
